Cosponsorship details
The International Center for Ethics, Justice, and Public Life initiates and cosponsors events related to its core mission and themes. These events reflect the guiding principles of the Ethics Center, emphasizing links between scholarship and practice, the influence of the arts, and connections to communities. The Center strives to stimulate thinking and discussion, valuing events that present a variety of viewpoints or invite consideration of a point of view, rather than strictly advocate for a particular point of view.
The Ethics Center cosponsors selected events organized by other Brandeis centers and departments. Cosponsorship by the Center may mean publicizing to the Center community and/or providing financial support. Cosponsorship amounts are typically up to $250. We can occasionally provide more support for an event closely related to the core themes of the Center's work. We particularly welcome cosponsorship requests for academic events.
Proposals are reviewed by a committee of faculty, staff, and students that meets monthly during the academic year. Proposal deadlines for fall 2008 are:
Monday, September 22 - for consideration at the September meeting, with a response no later than Monday, September 29
Friday, October 17 - for consideration at the October meeting, with a response no later than Friday, October 24
Friday, November 14 - for consideration at the November meeting, with a response no later than Friday, November 21
Proposals may be submitted for either the fall or spring semester at any time. Submission via email is preferred. In unusual circumstances, proposals can be considered between our monthly meetings. Proposals need not have final details to be considered for funding.
